Crouly

You sent the proposal on Tuesday. It's Friday. The client hasn't replied, and you're running the mental spreadsheet: did they open it, forward it, print it, ignore it? Crouly turns that black box into a live view — proposal opens, time spent, and how far the reader actually got.

What Crouly actually does

It's a proposal builder plus a reader-tracking dashboard, wrapped around a live chat that runs on the proposal page itself. You get told, in real time, when a prospect is reading — and you can talk to them while they still have the tab open.

• Live proposal tracking with per-page read time
• Telegram alerts the moment a prospect opens a page
• Interactive estimate builder with checkboxes that recalculate the price
• Real-time chat pinned to the proposal itself
• Rich text editor with headings, lists, code blocks, and Markdown
• Public and private proposal pages, share by link

The features that matter

Two things separate Crouly from a Notion page with a share link. The first is the analytics layer — you can see the exact minute a client returned to page four, which is the follow-up signal you were guessing at before. The second is the in-page chat: instead of chasing an email reply, you answer objections while the reader is still scrolling.

The estimate builder is worth calling out on its own. Give the client checkboxes for scope options, and the price updates as they toggle. It replaces the back-and-forth of "can we drop the copywriting scope" with a single approval click, which is where most agency proposals lose a week.

How it fits in your stack

Crouly positions itself against Notion for sales work, and that framing lands. Notion is fine for documents; it doesn't tell you who's reading and it can't chat with a prospect. If your current proposal flow is a shared Notion page plus a nervous check-in email, this is the direct swap. If you're on PandaDoc or a full CPQ tool, Crouly is thinner on the contract-side workflow — that's a fair trade if you mostly want the tracking and the live conversation.

Who it's built for

Small teams that live and die by proposal-to-close time. Digital agencies with a rolling pipeline of five-figure retainers get the most out of it, along with SEO consultants, freelance designers, and B2B SaaS sales reps who need to know exactly when to pick up the phone. Branding studios and dev shops sending fixed-scope estimates will get a lot from the interactive builder.

• Digital agencies running multi-touch proposals
• SEO and marketing consultants pitching retainers
• Freelance designers sending scoped estimates
• Web dev and software firms quoting fixed-price projects
• B2B SaaS sales teams closing mid-market deals

The lifetime deal starts at the Pro tier and scales by active page count and seat cap, so pick the tier that matches your yearly proposal volume rather than your headcount. Solo consultants send more proposals than they think.
